Three members concern the kanban heartbeat behavior: one bug report says the heartbeat tool does not extend the claim TTL, so workers may be reclaimed at 15 minutes, and two pull requests propose changes so heartbeat extends the TTL. One PR also bundles related reclaim, zombie, and retry-cap fixes.
